Applications of Metal–Organic Frameworks and Their Derivatives in Electrochemical CO_(2)Reduction

Electrochemically reducing CO_(2)to more reduced chemical species is a promising way that not only enables the conversion of intermittent energy resources to stable fuels,but also helps to build a closed-loop anthropogenic carbon cycle.Among various electrocatalysts for electrochemical CO_(2)reduction,multifunctional metal–organic frameworks(MOFs)have been employed as highly efficient and selective heterogeneous electrocatalysts due to their ultrahigh porosity and topologically diverse structures.Up to now,great progress has been achieved in the design and synthesis of highly active and selective MOF-related catalysts for electrochemical CO_(2)reduction reaction(CO_(2)RR),and their corresponding reaction mechanisms have been thoroughly studied.In this review,we summarize the recent progress of applying MOFs and their derivatives in CO_(2)RR,with a focus on the design strategies for electrocatalysts and electrolyzers.We first discussed the reaction mechanisms for different CO_(2)RR products and introduced the commonly applied electrolyzer configurations in the current CO_(2)RR system.Then,an overview of several categories of products(CO,HCOOH,CH_(4),CH_(3)OH,and multi-carbon chemicals)generated from MOFs or their derivatives via CO_(2)RR was discussed.Finally,we offer some insights and perspectives for the future development of MOFs and their derivatives in electrochemical CO_(2)reduction.We aim to provide new insights into this field and further guide future research for large-scale applications.

Metal oxides heterojunction derived Bi-In hybrid electrocatalyst for robust electroreduction of CO_(2) to formate

Electrochemical reduction of Bi-based metal oxides is regarded as an effective strategy to rationally design advanced electrocatalysts for electrochemical CO_(2)reduction reaction(CO_(2)RR).Realizing high selectivity at high current density is important for formate production,but remains challenging.Herein,the BiIn hybrid electrocatalyst,deriving from the Bi2O3/In2O3heterojunction(MOD-Biln),shows excellent catalytic performance for CO_(2)RR.The Faradaic efficiency of formate(FEHCOO-) can be realized over 90% at a wide potential window from-0.4 to-1.4 V vs.RHE,while the partial current density of formate(jHCOO-) reaches about 136.7 mA cm^(-2)at-1.4 V in flow cell without IR-compensation.In additio n,the MOD-Biln exhibits superior stability with high selectivity of formate at 100 mA cm^(-2).Systematic characterizations prove the optimized catalytic sites and interface charge transfer of MOD-Biln,while theoretical calculation confirms that the hybrid structure with dual Bi/In metal sites contribute to the optimal free energy of*H and*OCHO intermediates on MOD-Biln surface,thus accelerating the formation and desorption step of*HCOOH to final formate production.Our work provides a facile and useful strategy to develop highly-active and stable electrocatalysts for CO_(2)RR.

Superior oxygen electrocatalyst derived from metal organic coordination polymers by instantaneous nucleation and epitaxial growth for rechargeable Li-O_(2) battery

Rechargeable aprotic Li-O_(2)batteries have attractea increasing attention due to their extremely high capacity,and it is very important to design appropriate strategies to synthesize efficient catalysts used as oxygen cathode.In present work,we present an expedient "instantaneous nucleation and epitaxial growth"(INEG) synthesis strategy for convenient and large-scale synthesis of ultrafine MOCPs nanoparticles(size 50-100 nm) with obvious advantages such as fast synthesis,high yields,low costs and reduced synthetic steps.The bimetallic Ru/Co-MOCPs are further pyrolyzed to obtain bimetallic Coand low content of Ru-based nanoparticles embedded within nitrogen-doped carbon(Ru/Co@N-C) as an efficient catalyst used in Li-O_(2)battery.The Ru/Co@N-C provides porous carbon framework for the ion transportation and O_(2)diffusion,and has large amounts of metal/nonmetal sites as active site to promote the oxygen reduction reaction(ORR)/oxygen evolution reaction(OER) in Li-O_(2)batteries.As a consequence,a high discharge specific capacity of 15246 mA h g^(-1)at 250 mA g^(-1), excellent rate capability at different current densities,and stable overpotential during cycling,are achieved.This work opened up a new understanding for the industrialized synthesis of ultrafine catalysts for Li-O_(2)batteries with excellent structural characteristics and electrochemical performance.

Theoretical study of 2-mercaptobenzimidazole derivatives as chelating collectors in flotation separation of galena and pyrite

Three 2-mercaptobenzimidazole derivatives,1-ethyl-2-mercapto-benzimidazole(EMBI),1-propyl-2-mercapto-benzimidazole(PMBI)and 1-benze-2-mercapto-benzimidazole(BMBI),were designed and synthesized in the paper,and their collecting behavior in flotation separation process of galena over pyrite was investigated by flotation tests on lab scale.Apart from this,density functional theory(DFT)calculation and molecular dynamics(MD)simulation were also used to elucidate their collecting mechanism.Results of flotation tests indicate that separation of galena over pyrite is feasible at pH 10,and BMBI has the best floatability among three collectors.DFT calculations show that BMBI has the highest occupied molecular orbital(HOMO)energy and strongest collecting effciency.The adsorption mode of three collectors on mineral surface by MD method indicates that the combination processes of collectors with mineral are exothermic,and the higher the binding energy,the frmer the collector adsorbs on the mineral surface and the higher collecting capacity.The calculation results demonstrate that the floatability of three collectors follows the order:BMBI>PMBI>EMBI,which is highly consistent with the flotation tests.

Synergistic coupling of 0D-2D heterostructure from ZnO and Ti_(3)C_(2)T_(x)MXene-derived TiO_(2)for boosted NO_(2)detection at room temperature

2D MXenes are highly attractive for fabricating high-precision gas sensors operated at room temperature(RT)due to their high surface-to-volume ratio.However,the limited selectivity and low sensitivity are still long-standing challenges for their further applications.Herein,the self-assembly of 0D-2D heterostructure for highly sensitive NO_(2) detection was achieved by integrating ZnO nanoparticles on Ti_(3)C_(2)Tx MXene-derived TiO_(2) nanosheets(designated as ZnO@MTiO_(2)).ZnO nanoparticles can not only act as spacers to prevent the restacking of MTiO_(2) nanosheets and ensure effective transfer for gas molecules,but also enhance the sensitivity of the sensor the through trapping effect on electrons.Meanwhile,MTiO_(2) nanosheets facilitate gas diffusion for rapid sensor response.Benefiting from the synergistic effect of individual components,the ZnO@MTiO_(2)0D-2D heterostructure-based sensors revealed remarkable sensitivity and excellent selectivity to low concentration NO_(2) at RT.This work may facilitate the sensing application of MXene derivative and provide a new avenue for the development of high-performance gas sensors in safety assurance and environmental monitoring.

Use of Ultrasound and Microwave Irradiation for Clean and Efficient Synthesis of 3,3’-(Arylmethylene)bis (2-hydroxynaphthalene-1,4-dione) Derivatives

Nine 3,3’-(arylmethylene)bis(2-hydroxynaphthalene-1,4-dione) derivatives were synthesized through the reaction between 2-hydroxy-1,4-naphthalen-1,4-dione and different aromatic alde-hydes in water applying ultrasonic irradiation for 5 min at room temperature and microwave irradiation for 15 min at 70°;C. Two of the nine derivatives, compounds 3-e and 3-i, obtained from 3-bromo-hydroxybenzaldehyde and 5-methylfuran-2-carbaldehyde, respectively, are previously unpublished. The structures of all compounds were established on the basis of their spectral data and mass analysis. The attractive features of this synthesis protocol include mild conditions, high atom-economy and excellent yields with the elimination of water as the only by-product.

MOF基单原子催化剂用于CO_(2)还原的研究进展

CO_(2)资源化利用是实现“双碳”目标的重要途径之一。金属有机框架(metal-organic frameworks,MOF)材料具有高孔隙率、可调节的功能、丰富的活性位点和潜在锚定位点等优点;单原子催化剂(single-atom catalysts,SAC)有独特的电子结构和最大化金属利用率的优点。结合二者的优势,MOF基单原子催化剂在光/电催化CO_(2)还原反应中表现出良好的应用前景。系统地总结了MOF基单原子催化剂在光/电催化CO_(2)还原中的最新研究进展,主要分为2个部分:纯MOF固定的SAC和MOF衍生的SAC,分别探讨了各种制备策略和原理及在光/电催化CO_(2)还原中展现的独特优势,并从理化特性上分析了材料性能优势的成因。最后对以MOF基材料为光/电催化CO_(2)还原催化剂的研究进行了总结和展望。

γ-Mo_(2)N/C催化剂的合成及其甲酸脱氢性能研究

甲酸(FA)因其H含量较高(4.4%)、易产H_(2)、可经小平台化合物合成等优势受到广泛关注,而γ-Mo_(2)N/C对FA沿H_(2)和CO_(2)路径分解具有非常高的选择性,产生CO极少,显示出较高的应用价值。基于此,本研究采用对苯二胺和钼酸铵水溶液经前驱体制备γ-Mo_(2)N/C催化剂,并对其FA分解性能进行了原位评价,采用热重分析(TG)、X射线衍射(XRD)、傅里叶变换红外光谱(FT-IR)、扫描电镜(SEM)、透射电镜(TEM)等表征手段对催化剂的结构和表面官能团进行了分析,利用DFT对FA在γ-Mo_(2)N (200)晶面的吸附构型进行了计算,在此基础上,对催化剂性能及FA在其表面的分解机理进行了研究。结果表明,γ-Mo_(2)N/C在较低温度下即可表现出极高的催化活性,提高γ-Mo_(2)N在C载体上的分散性能有效改善FA转化率。对苯二胺与钼酸铵的物质的量比为4∶1时,催化性能最佳,在160℃、100 h的FA分解实验中,催化剂性能稳定、H_(2)选择性高(N_(2)40 mL/min, CO<5.0×10^(-5))。而DFT计算表明,FA中O-H键的H原子与γ-Mo_(2)N/C (200)晶面上N原子结合的可能性更大,而C=O键的O原子更有可能与γ-Mo_(2)N/C (200)晶面上Mo原子结合。上述结果有助于明确FA在γ-Mo_(2)N/C作用下的分解机理,也显示出非贵金属催化剂γ-Mo_(2)N/C在FA分解制H_(2)方面潜在的应用前景。

Synthesis of cystine C_(60) derivative and its protective effects on hydrogen peroxide-induced apoptosis in PC12 cells

Oxidative stress has been considered as a major cause of cellular injuries in a variety of clinical abnormalities, especially prominent in neural diseases. One of the usable ways to prevent the reactive oxygen species (ROS)-mediated cellular injury is dietary or pharmaceutical augmentation of some free radical scavenger. Water-soluble amino-fullerene is a novel compound that behaves as a free radical scavenger with excellent biology consistent. In the present study, we have synthesized and characterized a novel cystine C60 derivative for the first time, and investigated the effects on hydrogen peroxide-induced oxidative stress and apoptotic death in cultured rat pheochromocytoma (PC12) cells. PC12 cells treated with hydrogen peroxide underwent apoptotic death as determined by MTT, PI/Hoechst 33342 staining and flow cytometry analysis. These results suggested that cystine C60 derivative has the potential to prevent oxidative stress-induced cell death and has no evident toxicity.

2D-QSAR Studies on Anthranilic Acid Derivatives: A Novel Class of Allosteric Inhibitors of Hepatitis C NS5B Polymerase

Quantitative structure activity relationship （QSAR） studies were performed on 45 anthranilic acid derivatives for their potent allosteric inhibition activities of HCV NSSB polymerase. Genetic algorithm based genetic function approximation （GFA） method of variable selection was used to generate the model. Highly statistically significant model with r^2 = 0.966 and r^2cv = 0.951 was obtained when the number of descriptors in the equation was set to 5. High r^2pred value of 0.884 indicates the good predictive power of the best model. Spatial descriptors of radius of gyration （RadOfGration）, molecular volume （Vm）, length of molecule in the z dimension （Shadow-Zlength）, thermodynamic descriptors of the octanol/water partition coefficient （LogP） and molecular refractivity index （MR） showed enormous contributions to HCV NS5B polymerase inhibition. The validation of the model was done by leave-one-out （LOO） test, randomization tests and external test set prediction. The model gives insight on indispensable structural requirements for the activity and can be used to design more potent analogs against HCV NSSB polymerase.
